A ball, huh . . . ?  Seems like it's all anyone's taking about these days.  Guess people'll grab at whatever little bit of excitement they can get.

These sort of events aren't really the sort of thing I'd normally be interested in, but the rewards sound pretty nice.  I'd rather not go alone if I can help it, though -- Any takers?  So long as you're female, above the age of 18, and preferably human-esque, I'm not too picky at this point.  Most of you've probably made plans already.

 . . . Uh.  Terra.  I-If you don't mind my asking.  And if no one else has asked you already.  Also if you're not busy.  And if it happens that you might possibly feel like it.  Also . . .

Huh.  Hang on, I had a speech or something along those lines memorized, but I seem to have forgotten it somewhere in my brain.  That doesn't really make sense.  Forgotten it somewhere.

That is.

Ah-hem.  Would you care to go to the ball with me?

((Klarth is not at all in his usual spirits for some unknown reason.  Feel free to notice.  I am aware that Terra has already made plans.  I think.))

As long as I've been here, the population has remainined stable, if nothing else. People leave and are replaced. However, that's a large order to fill. I've never heard of people disappearing en masse, nor do I know if we should expect a sudden influx of new arrivals.

Interesting. Do you expect more disappearances or suspect foul play?

That was always the case, yes. It's a bit troubling, then, to see so many leaving at once. I don't truly expect anything; the island has proven itself to be quite unpredictable.

But . . . I admit, it almost appears as if the island is preparing to wind itself down.

Winding itself down. A curious way to look at it. To a smaller state of existence or to nothing itself?

I was thinking, perhaps, that it may be finished. With whatever it wanted to do . . .

But, of course, I'm being entirely irrational. There are still many of us left on this island.
